"This mission targets the Black Poison Gu King, led by Thunder God. At five in the morning, we enter the Wild Elephant Forest and must capture the Black Poison Gu King. If it's confirmed to be his doing, he can be killed directly."

Elder Qiao glanced at everyone, his expression solemn.

Upon hearing the words "Black Poison Gu King," Qin Yang could feel Yun Luo, who was sitting opposite him, move slightly, her face growing even colder.

A completely black spider had somehow crawled onto her shoulder, creating a stark contrast with her white neck.

"Qin Yang, Miss Yun Luo is from the Black Miao Race and is skilled in Gu Technique. The Black Poison Gu King is also from the Black Miao Race."

Seeing Qin Yang's gaze fixed on Yun Luo, Jiang Huo'Er whispered to Qin Yang. After all, understanding the information of teammates when venturing into a tropical rainforest dense with venomous insects, ants, and beasts is essential.

"So this girl is actually from the Black Miao Race?"

Qin Yang looked at Yun Luo with a hint of surprise in his heart. No wonder she was so concerned about the Black Poison Gu King.

"Yes, the former elder was an Honored Guest Elder of our Special Security Department. Miss Yun Luo was recommended by him and joined our Special Security Department three months ago."

Jiang Huo'Er nodded and then, with sincere admiration, said, "I've only executed one mission with her. Miss Yun Luo is very formidable."

The land of Miao has a tradition of Witchcraft and Gu Skill, collectively known as Witchcraft and Gu Skill. The Miao Race is a large designation, subdivided into Black Miao Race, White Miao Race, Blue Miao Race, Flower Miao Race, and more than a dozen other ethnic groups.

In fact, only the White Miao Race and Black Miao Race know Witchcraft and Gu Skill. The White Miao Race is proficient in Witchcraft, while the Black Miao Race excels in Gu Technique. Moreover, not everyone in these two groups can perform Witchcraft and Gu Skill. Only a few White Miao and Black Miao people understand these skills.

"Now Thunder God will explain the route to enter the Wild Elephant Rainforest."

Elder Qiao said.

"Yes, Elder Qiao."

Thunder God nodded, took out a folding tablet, and swiped a few times on its wide screen, forming a virtual image above it.

Qin Yang's eyes focused as an image of a tropical rainforest with a hint of science fiction appeared above Thunder God's tablet.

"This is holographic 3D projection technology forming 3D images above the screen."

Jiang Huo'Er explained.

"Your Special Security Department's instruments are quite advanced."

Qin Yang commented, noting the communication watch and this 3D projection tablet, both of which were years ahead of the market.

It's foreseeable that in the future, holographic 3D phones and tablets will enter people's lives, bringing epochal changes just as the initial advent of mobile phones did.

"Everyone, look at these red dots, representing the villages on the periphery of the tropical rainforest."

Thunder God pointed to the 3D projection above the tablet.

Qin Yang looked over, seeing seven or eight hundred dense red dots on the rainforest projection, all located at the extreme edges.

This was understandable given that even a slightly deeper rainforest area was rife with venomous insects and beasts, unsuitable for human habitation. Only the edge areas had fertile soil fit for planting, with fewer venomous creatures, also home to many wild elephants, buffalo, and woolly monkeys.

"Here are the three deceased villages."

Thunder God tapped on the screen, circling three small red dots.

These three dots were slightly more inward and remote compared to other villages, with some distance from them.

"These three villages are in this area, leading us to speculate that the Black Poison Gu King is active in this vicinity."

Thunder God enlarged the circled area to include several other villages.

"According to the forensic identification, the villagers' death in the first village occurred five days ago, the second village three days ago. To prevent epidemic, our epidemic prevention personnel have already entered the first two villages, and the bodies are dealt with."

"The third village happened yesterday. The Black Poison Gu King might attack a village again tomorrow, making tomorrow's task heavy and ensuring he doesn't commit further atrocities!"

Thunder God's face was somber, as the ability to annihilate a village was simply insane.

Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

"The cause of death in the first two villages seems to be the Black Poison Gu King's Scorpion King Heart-devouring Gu. Thus, tomorrow we will go directly to the third village, where Miss Yun Luo will investigate the true cause of death."

Thunder God looked at Yun Luo and said.

Yun Luo clenched her hand slightly, nodded, and her white face grew colder. Though the three annihilated villages didn't belong to the Black Miao Race, the Black Poison Gu King was from the Black Miao Race, making his massacre of villages unforgivable to her.

"Proximate to the three deceased villages are these two villages, likely the next targets. After investigating the cause in the third village, we will then go to Village Four and Village Five to track the Black Poison Gu King's whereabouts."

Thunder God pointed to two small red dots on the screen and said.

"If there are no issues, everyone should sleep early. Tomorrow at five sharp, we'll enter the Wild Elephant Rainforest along this route to track the Black Poison Gu King."

Thunder God drew a path on the screen and said.

After arranging the next day's route, everyone returned to their tents except Qin Yang, who raised his head to look at the starry sky. The sky here was pure, largely unpolluted, and the Power of the Stars was not weak.

Just as Qin Yang decided to find a spot with the densest Power of the Stars for cultivation, a voice came from behind.

"Brother Qin Yang, where are you going?"

Teng Feng said.

"Just taking a casual stroll."

Qin Yang replied with a smile, feeling good about the young man in front of him.

"Hehe, it's still early, and I can't sleep either."

Teng Feng caught up to Qin Yang in two swift steps and said with a smile.

The two walked a few steps and sat down on a piece of grass.

"Teng Feng, how old are you?"

Qin Yang asked. The young man's face showed some youthful innocence, but his eyes were filled with determination.

"Sixteen."

Teng Feng replied with a smile.

"Impressive, joining the Special Security Department at such a young age. Your parents must be very proud."

Qin Yang remarked, as joining the Special Security Department at a young age must indeed be a great pride for a family.

"I have no parents."

With these words, a slight gloom appeared on Teng Feng's face, with a hint of sadness deep in his eyes.
